Hmm. I come up with 60 mph for .1" diameter hole at one gallon per minute (231 cubic inches per minute through 0.0079 square inch opening)... Benn fuel a

Your right , I forgot to convert ft/min to ft/sec . At 1 gpm the air speed through a vent should be : 1/10" --28 mph 1/8" --18 mph 1/4" --4.5 mph 3/8" --2 mph 1/2" --1 mph
